Tonight was the party and it was hectic. For the whole day we moved furniture around. We moved the coffee table into the laundry, it was extremely heavy and we had a lot of trouble doing it but eventually we got it in there. We moved the tv into Daniels room which he was happy with and anything else breakable we either hid in something that wasn't breakable or stored it in the laundry.

Around noon we decided to take a break. We fell on the couch heaving a heavy sigh. We had finished the kitchen, hiding my mothers vases and china. All that was left was the backyard, I wanted to shield my fathers vegetable garden from any reckless behaviour and hide his ornaments. I also had to empty my bathroom and put all of my belongings in my room.

"I think it's been a successful day" Daniel stated and I nodded. "What are you thinking for lunch?"

I shrugged my shoulders, "pizza?" I glanced at him to see him contemplate it but shake his head.

"Nah, I'll cook us something" he grabbed my hand and pulled me up off the couch. I groaned in protest, I was so tired. He led me to the kitchen and I sat on the bar stool. I watched intrigued as he rubbed his hands together, "Okay, what should we cook?" He asked as he looked through my cupboard.

I shrugged my shoulders trying to think, it was a pretty cold day but luckily for me my house was toasty warm. "What about some spag bowl?" I suggested and he looked at me intrigued. We had eaten the last of my mums spag bowl a few days ago, now there were only soups left.

Nodding his head he walked over to the cupboard and grabbed some pasta. He began to cook away and I watched with interest. I loved the way he moved around my kitchen, as if he grew up here knowing where everything was. It was silent for a bit so I connected my phone to the speaker and began to blast my music. Eventually Daniel and I were screaming our heads off and dancing until he finished the food and we went to the dining table to eat. I turned down the music so we could talk.

"I want you to meet my family" he suddenly said and I began to choke on my pasta.

"You what??" I asked after I finally was able to breathe again.

He chuckled and lightly tapped my back. "I want you to meet my family, I haven't seen them in a while because I've been here with you and they want to meet the girl I've been spending all this time with" he saw the look of fear on my face and shook his head, "it would just be as a friend, we're not in a relationship, just a guy bringing home a new friend" he explained and saying it like that actually made my heart climb back into my chest and calm down from it's panic attack.

I gulped and slowly nodded my head, "yeah sure... that doesn't sound too bad" I replied making him grin.

After we finished eating we got back to work, setting up all the tables and bins, putting the plastic sheets over the furniture; setting up all the food and stashing away our own liquor so that people didn't steal it. We and by we I mean Daniel bought a bottle of vodka, tequila and mixes to share with everyone while I waited outside, but even though we were supplying some drinks it was still a bring your own kind of party.

Avery came over around 9:00pm so that we could get ready for the party together. We rushed up to my room leaving Daniel behind to do his own thing.
